Sciatica pain occurs when the sciatic nerve, running from the lower back to the legs, is irritated or compressed. Common causes include:

• Herniated or slipped discs

• Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
• Piriformis syndrome (muscle pressure on the sciatic nerve)
• Poor posture and prolonged sitting
• Injury or trauma to the lower back

Identifying the root cause is key to providing effective treatment and long-term relief.
